I’ve just got home after providing my mobile disco for Tay’s birthday party at The Balmullo Inn, Balmullo, Fife.

Tay’s dad Iain contacted me a few weeks ago and booked me to perform a Children’s disco for his son’s 9th birthday party and added a snow machine and smoke machine for a bit of extra magic!

To say that the children loved the snow machine and smoke machine would be an understatement. Every time I put either on they would run to get either covered in snow or to hide in the smoke.

Both are completely non toxic and safe and are a great effect. Smoke in particular highlights the disco lights and makes them look far better, especially the cluster lasers.

The one thing about today’s party that was really quite surprising was the requests! I think Tay’s dad has been playing some amazingly good tunes at home and his son has taken a liking to them. With classics from Ac/Dc, Queen, Django Django, OMD, and visage among the many requests on his playlist.

All the kids knew these tunes world for word and were singing along to them. I wrote a post before saying how bad the current charts are and that people are showing less and less interest in current music. These kids were a classic case in point, not one requests for a current chart song apart from George Ezra’s paradise.

I played a selection of games, the kids all played and were very well behaved. This party had a predominance of boys which usually would make a party harder to do. However Tay and his friends were really into partying and danced from start to finish and we’re a great crowd.

I’ve always enjoyed doing children’s parties and I’ve done more than you would ever imagine over the years all over Fife and the rest of Scotland.

The barman, Ross, in The Balmullo Inn was very interested in my gear as I set up and said it was a great setup that I had. He knew his stuff as did Iain who booked me who used to be in the entertainment business when he was younger. We talked about our love of music and Dj talk about equipment.

I used a disco setup similar to this one for Tay’s birthday party.

The party was a great success and Iain has now booked me for his other son’s party in December.
